We used to watch the original series each time it came on. RIP Peter Graves.

Joey, do you like movies about gladiators?

Seriously? I thought he was older than Arness.

I really enjoyed the original series.

The original M.I. is on late night on one of the 'nostalgia' channels; I've been getting my fix on the weekends.

I liked the early ones, going after Eastern European Commies and 3rd world thugs. When it switched to mainly mobsters and crime lords, not quite as much.
